Publisher Description
Fourteen-year-old Mona isn't like the wizards charged with defending the city. She can't control lightning or speak to water. Her familiar is a sourdough starter and her magic only works on bread. She has a comfortable life in her aunt's bakery making gingerbread men dance.
But Mona's life is turned upside down when she finds a dead body on the bakery floor. An assassin is stalking the streets of Mona's city, preying on magic folk, and it appears that Mona is his next target. And in an embattled city suddenly bereft of wizards, the assassin may be the least of Mona's worries...
Customer Reviews
Delicious!
For such an absurd concept, this novel delivers warmth, humor, and no small amount of satisfaction.
Laugh, Cry, Laugh, Think
While there are a few ideas and themes as heavy as Boston bean-bread, most of it is a delightful romp through croissants and an occasional lemon-tart that’ll make your eyes watery.
